Update: NHCS’ board of Ed passed the Student Voice policy unanimously 7-0. I am ecstatic and so proud of these students’ commitment, persistence, and vision for inclusivity, problem solving, & overall hopeful policy.

This is what it looks like to be about #studentvoice! District leaders in @AbbotsfordSD seated listening to student teams present their change visions, rooted in #streetdata gathered from peers, with loving accountability for adults. #EquityTransformationCycle @JamilaDugan

Momentum is building around the #AmericanTeacherAct (H.B. 882) which now has 50 co-sponsors and 81 endorsers! This bill is putting real action behind the belief that teachers deserve higher wages. More details in this article from @USATODAY; bit.ly/3k3vgRR

What if our students’ voices were a primary measure for “success” & “achievement” in educational spaces?
Thankyou @NCEDmatters @theNCForum for your intentionality on this topic. Once again, I learn from and am inspired by them.
